About NEOGEO

In 1990, SNK (Currently SNK PLAYMORE) developed and sold arcade
games and a console that could play these high-quality titles at
home: the NEOGEO. The specs for both the MVS"Arcade" and the AES
"Home" systems were the same, making them playable even in fans'
living room. It was also the first console offering a memory card
allowing users to save progress at home, and for use at the arcade
as well!
